Despite what online reports suggest, CEO Strauss Zelnick doesn\u2019t seem worried.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent interview with The Game Business, he stated that the current component pricing and supply situation is not expected to affect the delivery of next-generation consoles to the market (via Wccftech).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Yes, it\u2019s a brief statement, but given Take-Two\u2019s position in the gaming industry as one of the biggest publishers, it carries weight. It\u2019s not just the Take-Two CEO who is confident about PS6 and the next-gen Xbox console (Project Helix). Earlier this month, a well-known tipster, <em>KeplerL2<\/em>, also claimed that PS6 is still \u201con track\u201d for a Holiday 2027 launch.<\/p>\n<p>While Sony\u2019s timeline appears uncertain, Microsoft hasn\u2019t faced the same level of scrutiny so far. That said, reports from GDC suggesting next-gen Xbox \u201cProject Helix\u201d developer kits could arrive in 2027 have led to speculation that the console itself might launch later in the year.<\/p>\n<p>At a time when hardware timelines are closely tied to major game releases, comments like this suggest that publishers may still be planning around a fairly stable launch window. While exact dates remain unclear, it appears that not everyone in the industry is convinced that delays are inevitable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"main-content__author-info__name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong>Rishaj Upadhyay<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"main-content__author-info__role\">News Editor<\/p>\n<p class=\"main-content__author-info__bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRishaj is a tech writer who has been writing professionally for over four years, with a passion for Android, Windows, and all things tech.
